These stunning Raven Skulls come in a choice of two designs:
* Earthy coldcast Bronze; which is a blend of pure bronze powder and resin. This combination delivers fantastic patination and wonderful detail. 
* Vibrant electric blue which has been cast in herculite, hand painted and coated with tough yacht varnish for extra durability.
 
Either option is perfect for indoor or outdoor hanging. Measuring approximately 150 mm high by 70 mm wide at their widest point, they come complete with fitted hanger for easy display.
 
In Irish mythology, Ravens are associated with warfare and the battleground in the figures of Badb and Morrígan. The goddess Morrígan alighted on the hero Cú Chulainn's shoulder in the form of a raven after his death.
 
Ravens were also associated with the Welsh god Bran the Blessed (the brother of Branwen), whose name translates to "raven."
 
According to the Mabinogion, Bran's head was buried in the White Hill of London as a talisman against invasion. He is depicted as a giant and the King of the Britons in a tale known as the Second Branch of the Mabinogi.
 
Several other characters in Welsh mythology share his name, and ravens figure prominently in the 12th or 13th-century text The Dream of Rhonabwy, as the army of King Arthur's knight Owain.
